lyrics

I don’t think that I should go outside
Because Atlantic winds would cut me open wide
And my chapped, bare hands won’t hold their own
And the winter blues are overgrown

I’m a man of late nights and late cards
Not of broken homes or tearing friends apart
But the back and forth in sleep routines
Makes me someone I don’t want to be

I need to exercise restraint
Not dwell on every petulant complaint
And you wont remind me that I’m not my dad
I kind of wish you never had

I don’t think that I should go to sleep
I don’t think about the company I keep
It’s a wasted horizontal void
That I could be spending with screens and toys

Drop the laissez-faire pretence
Try reading, try taking in some common sense
You would assume I want to stay inside
That mother nature’s not my type

But if you take the time to take into account the pros and cons
You’ll notice I’m not there for very long
And indecision is a bore

I don’t think that I should go outside tonight alone
I like it here at home
